Re: Pierre Cardin Pour Monsieur

I had this at one time and liked it. Only thing I can tell you is to spray very liberally to get some staying power. Spray just like you would a body spray. Since it's an EDC you're not taking any risk. The 8 oz. size is very cheap so even if you use a lot, the bottle will last.

I got compliments wearing this but didn't find it appealing enough for another purchase. The Chanel brand is much, much superior IMO.

Re: Pierre Cardin Pour Monsieur

Was this reformulated over the years? More than one person is saying to spray alot on, which I can't understand - the last thing is was was weak or short-lived.

Maybe it was the EDT, not the EDC, I used years ago.

Definitely reformulated. The PC EDC i used in the early 80s had a "creamier" feel that is lacking in today's version. To be honest, longevity was not an issue for me then. I thought all scents lasted till a shower, but our noses got exhausted (duuh). I dont remember there being an EDT version though.

It has more staying power than you would think.

I've tried unscented moisturizer with various fragrances. Usually just works against the fragrance by dilluting it. Despite being "hypoallergenic" and so on, it just interferes with the cologne. That's my experience anyway.
